Chapter 61: Fierce Fight!
And at this time, inside the big tent of the Chinese army outside the city, listening to the report of the herald below, Hu Batian couldn't help frowning, the defenders fought back tragically, and the Hu Batian's side suffered heavy losses, and they did not attack the city wall once, and the morale of the army was also greatly reduced, and the situation was somewhat unfavorable to Hu Batian.
However, when he thought of Tiger Pupil, he gradually raised his eyebrows, after all, in this battle, everyone else was just feintting, and Tiger Pupil's side was the main force, and most importantly, there were still a lot of small works in ambush in the city, as long as they could cooperate with the outside, it would be much easier to attack the national capital.
But Tiger Batian never expected that his brilliant plan would be destroyed by Xuanyuan Gu. At this time, the tiger pupil who was besieging the city was even more scolding and angry.
The remnant sun is like blood, the smoke of gunpowder is filled under the national capital, the flesh and blood are flying, the corpses are piled up like a mountain, and the blood is what it is.
The left city of the national capital.
In the earth-shattering shouts of killing, there were still arrows engraved with special runes flying up and down the city wall, the cloud ladder had been erected, and fireballs suddenly flew by. Blood splattered, soldiers continued to fall from the city, and corpses were piled up layer after layer under the national capital. Although the sun was setting, the battle was not over......
It's the fourth day, Tiger Pupil commands the army day and night, desperately attacking the city is already the fourth day, although the city wall has been damaged in many places, and the defensive formation has been damaged a lot, but it has been restored by the defenders.
However, because of the Tiger Pupil's attack day and night, although the defenders held the city, they also lost at least tens of thousands of people, and the defenders were not very many, only 50,000, and now they have lost nearly one-fifth, and there are only 20,000 troops left in Zuocheng. If the enemy forces below attack fiercely again, I am afraid that they will be able to hold out for a moment or three at most.
The general who defended the city on the left led the defenders to fight desperately, his eyes were already bloodshot, he had been blinded for many days, and his left arm was wounded by a stray arrow, and he was briefly bandaged and put into battle again. The offensive of the Tiger Pupil army of the Heavenly Tiger Country is too strong, the general who defends the city looks at the enemy army that is still attacking the city below, and looks worried, if there are no reinforcements, the fall of the left city will be in the past two days.
And once the left city falls, the 100,000 troops of the Heavenly Tiger Kingdom will pour into the national capital from here, and the national capital will also be captured, so the pressure on the defending generals is particularly great.
However, just as the so-called blessings and misfortunes, misfortunes and blessings, just when the city guards were troubled, in the palace hall, the tense atmosphere followed the narration of the people below, and all the ministers and Shi Heng present breathed a sigh of relief.
It turned out that the reinforcements sent by the nearest city totaled 50,000 troops, and at this time it was less than 100 miles away from the national capital, and the distance of 100 miles was nothing at all for the 50,000 troops with demon dao cultivation, and they could all arrive in half an hour.
And in the big tent outside the city, which was different from the joy of the ministers in the palace hall, the solemn atmosphere was stagnant, and all the generals standing couldn't help frowning and looked at the silent Tiger Batian above.
Obviously, the news of the approaching 50,000 reinforcements of the Heavenly Lion Country had already reached the camp of the Heavenly Tiger Country.
"Let's talk about it, what do we do next?"
Tiger Batian was very depressed, really, everything was planned well, the army feintmed, the tiger pupil attacked all the way, and the fine work in the city took the opportunity to kill the defenders, and the army outside the city should be combined with the outside.
However, the current situation is that not only the other armies suffered heavy losses in the siege, but even the Tiger Pupil attacked all the way for four days, and never took the left city, and also lost nearly 10,000 people.
It's like the national capital city is a peach at your fingertips, but a monkey suddenly sprang out in front of you and snatched the peach away, can Tiger Batian not be depressed?
"Marshal, why don't we also mobilize reinforcements!"
"Yes, Dashuai has lost more than 30,000 people in our army of 100,000 now, and the defenders of the Tianshi Kingdom plus reinforcements are comparable to us, and the other party still has a city in hand, if we want to win, the chance is too small!"
Several generals persuaded Tiger Batian to mobilize other armies to come. But how could Tiger Batian not want to do this, but he had already boasted of Haikou in front of the king before, and he could capture the capital of the Tianshi Kingdom with only these 100,000 troops, if he mobilized other armies to come at this time, wouldn't he be a slap in the face?
But if this is not the case, then what should be done, and it will definitely not work! After all, people have strong walls in hand, and attacking them is purely seeking death.
"Tiger Pioneer, what do you think?" Tiger Batian thought about it, but he didn't come up with a way to get the best of both worlds, he glanced at the generals below, and saw that Tiger Tong seemed to be thoughtful, and hurriedly asked.
And Tiger Pupil was really thinking about the siege battle in the past few days at this time, in the past four days, his army has already killed tens of thousands of people, if it is not for the order to slow down the attack, I am afraid that not only will not be able to capture the left city, but also more people will be killed and wounded.
You must know that for this main attack, Tiger Batian handed over all the elites of the Heavenly Tiger Country led by him to Tiger Pupil, but the battle has been fought so far, it really shouldn't be.
"Marshal, this time because of the change of details, our plan went bankrupt, I think what the generals said makes sense, now the situation is urgent, it is better to mobilize reinforcements first, otherwise we will not only not be able to break through the capital of the Tianshi Kingdom, but there will also be a danger of being annihilated from both sides. ”
"General Tiger is right! Marshal, we have to think about it!"
"Please think twice!"
"Please think twice!"
"Okay, don't worry, this time it's the commander who didn't think it through, so let's send a signal to the nearest reinforcements and let them lead an army of 50,000 to come to help! Before that, I need your sincere cooperation to meet the other side's counterattack!"
"Yes, Dashuai!"
And just as the Heavenly Tiger Kingdom was making countermeasures, the defenders of the national capital city also began to realize that the attack of the Heavenly Tiger Kingdom's army had slowed down significantly.
And this situation was also transmitted to the palace hall for the first time. Immediately, Shi Heng ordered the army defending the city to hurry up and recuperate, and strive to attack from both sides when the reinforcements came, crushing the army of the Heavenly Tiger Kingdom besieging the city in one fell swoop, and relieving the siege of the capital city.
However, they never thought that just half an hour later, when the 50,000 troops came to help, the 50,000 reinforcements of the Heavenly Tiger Country were also rushing towards the national capital.
Half an hour passed quickly, and during this time, the remaining 70,000 troops of the Heavenly Tiger Kingdom had completely stopped attacking the city, but retreated to the flat ground ten miles away, and set up a formation, ready to welcome the arrival of the 50,000 army of the Heavenly Lion Kingdom.
Tiger Batian understood that his reinforcements must be slower than the reinforcements of the Tianshi Kingdom, so he could only resist the attack of the two sides first, in order to resist, he asked Hu Tong to lead an army of 40,000 as the rear army, in case the defenders of the capital city went out of the city to attack the rear, and he personally led the remaining 30,000 troops as the front army.
The reason why Hu Batian will be arranged like this is because the left and right are high mountains, which is not conducive to the walking of the army, so there is no need to send troops to defend, and ten miles to the rear is the national capital, if the national capital city sends troops to sneak attack, it must be resisted, and the defenders of the national capital city have long been familiar with the battlefield after so many days of defending the city, so it will be a difficult army, just in case, Hu Batian had to arrange more troops in the rear, and also sent the tiger pupil to sit in the town.
After the army waited solemnly, after a while, the 50,000 reinforcements of the Heavenly Lion Country began to rush over, and they did not pause, and rushed directly towards the army of the Heavenly Tiger Kingdom.
Seeing this scene, the tiger tyrant who was the commander in chief was somewhat puzzled, but when he thought that the other party was a reinforcement, and he came to rescue the national capital, it must have been Shi Heng who gave the order to die, and the general who led the army did not dare to slack off in the slightest, so he had to march desperately, and when he was blocked by the army of the Tianhu country, he did not make preparations, and went to war directly.
For this, the coach Hu Batian is naturally very happy, after all, these 50,000 reinforcements have traveled a long way, not to mention physical and mental exhaustion, and they don't even have time to arrange the formation, so Hu Batian is not worried.
"Shoot the arrows!"
"Put!"
"Put!"
"Put!"
With the finger of the Tiger Batian's sword, all of a sudden, the rain of arrows shot overwhelmingly, and in an instant, the vanguard of the entire 50,000 reinforcements was killed and wounded.
But the leading general gritted his teeth, regardless of the casualties, and still gave the order to accelerate the attack.
"Rush!"
"Kill, kill!"
"Kill ......!"
Seeing the other party slamming and rushing, regardless of the dead and wounded, while Hu Batian's brows furrowed, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, the other party was really crazy.
"Archers prepare!
Whoosh ......!
"The whole army charges-!" After the rain of arrows, with the order of the tiger tyrant, the 30,000 army rushed towards the 50,000 charging enemy troops in front of them like a flood of fierce beasts.
Suddenly, the two armies were intertwined, shouting and killing and swords trying to collide, and the explosions of the demon duel were all blended together.
The fierce fighting lasted until the evening, and the 30,000 Heavenly Tiger Kingdom army and the 50,000 Heavenly Lion Country reinforcements almost all fought with their lives.
The remnant sun is like blood, and the land stained red by blood is depressed, and the north wind blows, which is even more desolate. On the field within a radius of ten miles, the banners are crooked, and sometimes there is a burst of gunsmoke.
The ground was covered with bright red bloodstains, and countless cold corpses were lying on the ground staggering, and sometimes the undead let out a few painful moans. This situation tells the world about the tragedy and cruelty of the battle.
In the distance, Xuanyuan Gu was quietly observing the tragic battle between the two armies.
"It is worthy of the army of the demon country, even if it is a medium demon country, whether it is a soldier or a commander, it is very good! Especially all kinds of demon attacks are used in the battle of the army, its tragedy is even greater, and the lethality is also stronger, but it seems that their weapons and bows and arrows are specially made, and there are runes engraved on them, which should have cost a lot of spiritual materials. ”
"It seems that if Huaxia wants to build a strong army, it will take a lot of effort! No matter how strong an individual's strength is, it can't withstand a group fight, especially the military formation in the army!"
In addition to sighing, Xuanyuan Gu was not only carefully observing the battle of the army, but also thinking about how to keep the army of the Heavenly Tiger Kingdom in balance with the army of the Heavenly Lion Kingdom, so that they could concentrate most of their forces in the national capital, so that the Huaxia Kingdom could benefit from the fishermen.
In the next few days, the army of the Heavenly Tiger Kingdom and the 50,000 reinforcements of the Heavenly Lion Kingdom were fighting each other, and the defenders of the capital of the rear country also sent a large army to attack the rear army of the Heavenly Tiger Kingdom.
The battle was scorched from the start, with heavy casualties on both sides
